When you enter a large florist's shop, you can see the gorgeous peonies at the entrance. They are magnificent and charming. Close by, you can see the fragrance coming to your face. For example, Li Shanfu's peony poem of the Tang Dynasty: "if the east wind doesn't open early, the fragrance will float to the balcony. A few buds appear in the fire, and a piece of exotic fragrance comes up in the sky

One of cloud's favorite flowers is peony, which is also known as Mu Shaoyao, huawang, Luoyang Wang and Fugui Hua. It belongs to Paeoniaceae, originated in China and is a deciduous subshrub. It can endure the low temperature of minus 30 degrees. It can grow normally in the area where the annual average relative humidity is about 45%. Like light, but also slightly resistant to Yin. Requirements of loose, fertile, good drainage of neutral loam or sandy loam, avoid heavy soil or low temperature planting. The flowering period is four to five months.

Peony not only has strong ornamental value, but also has high medicinal value. The root bark of peony has been used as medicine since ancient times《 Shennong's materia medica Canon listed it as the middle grade. Li Shizhen wrote "the order of paeoniflorin in the category of Materia Medica" and said: "the color peony is the best for peony.". Danpi is slightly cold in nature, bitter and pungent in taste, and non-toxic. It enters the heart, liver and kidney meridians. It has the function of clearing blood, promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis. It is mainly used for macular eruption, hematemesis, blood stagnation, amenorrhea, premenstrual development, carbuncle swelling, sore poison, injury and blood stasis, yin deficiency development, no sweat and bone steaming. Clinically, it is mainly used for clearing liver fire, cooling blood and dispersing blood stasis (anti-inflammatory and antihypertensive), such as fever, night sweat, spontaneous sweating, headache, astringent eyes and irregular menstruation caused by liver stagnation fire. It is often combined with gardenia and bupleurum, such as "Danzhi Xiaoyao Powder".

Take its heat and blood stasis function, treatment of acute appendicitis often with rhubarb, honeysuckle, such as "rhubarb Peony Decoction" addition and subtraction. Because of hypertension and arterialization and liver stagnation heat, can be with wild chrysanthemum, Cassia obtusifolia and other antihypertensive. If Yin deficiency fever, with "Qinghao Biejia decoction.". Fever bleeding, can help rhinoceros horn, Shengdi Liangxue hemostasis; For those who suffer from blood stasis after contusion, Paeonia suffruticosa and Artemisia argyi are added to the prescription to cool blood and remove blood stasis.

Therefore, Paeonia suffruticosa is a commonly used drug to remove vexed heat, blood stasis or accumulation of scrofula. Paeonia suffruticosa can not only be combined with other drugs Decoction for the treatment of general acute diseases, but also be made into pills and tablets with slow absorption, long-lasting drug force and convenient taking, carrying and storage.

The consumption of peony began in Song Dynasty. There is a book in Ming Dynasty: "Peony new petals can also be cooked."《 According to the records of erruting qunfangpu, the decocting method of peony is the same as that of Magnolia, which can be eaten and candied. The petals can be selected, washed, dragged and cooked in sesame oil It is recorded in yangxiaolu of Qing Dynasty that peony petals and soup can be boiled, honey soaked and gravy stewed

There are many ways to eat peony, such as frying, burning, frying or making soup. Such as peony and meat co stewed system of "meat peony", color is fresh, palatable, bright peony, wrapped in flour fried food, delicious and attractive, soaked with sugar is superior preserves; When making soup, sprinkle some peony petals in the soup, which is colorful, fragrant, delicious and appetizing. In addition, fried fish fillets with peony and fried duck breast with peony are also seasonal delicacies.

Thinking of the many benefits of peony, Yunduo decided to buy a peony to go back. Yunduo chose a light green peony. The crystal green is deeply loved by Yunduo. The petals are full of green, like white clouds, which reminds people of the beautiful scene of the green wave fairy wandering in space. Looking carefully, it seems that she is an ancient lady, looking at this different world with shame and timidity.

Cloud happily chose this peony, and said to the owner to take it for a while, then continued to stroll.

Then Yunduo bought a basin of mint. Mint leaves contain mint oil (menthol and menthol), mint cream, camphor terpene, lemon terpene, protein, fat, carbohydrate, mineral and vitamin. Peppermint has many leaves, green color and strong smell. The tender stems and leaves can be used as cool drinks and cakes. Main ingredients: the whole plant contains volatile oil, the main components are menthol, menthone, glucoside and a variety of free amino acids. It has the functions of dispersing wind heat, clearing throat, relieving itching, anti inflammation and analgesia.

In spring and summer, Yunduo likes to pick mint leaves, wash them and put them in a bowl, add rock sugar, and drink the juice after crushing. It's really cool. It was beautiful. It's especially good for colds and coughs. Mint's reproductive capacity is super strong, so clouds only buy a small pot. I bought some more small tools and wanted to go home to do the experiment, so I went back to get the peony and went home.

When the clouds came home, they sent the young man to lock the door, moved the peony and mint to the study, drew the curtains of the study, and flashed into the space. Once in the space, the clouds take a deep breath, and then feel the pores of the whole body are open. The first breath out of the cloud is a turbid breath. Sticking out his tongue, the cloud felt that he took it for granted.

When I came to the riverside, because I bought tools, I easily dug two pits, one big and one small. The cloud took out the peony and mint from the flowerpot and put them into two earth pits respectively. After finishing and flattening, I enjoyed them. I felt that both the flower and mint were in a lot of spirit. I poured some water, nodded with satisfaction, and washed my hands by the riverside. It's out of space.

Sitting on the sofa, the cloud recalled the experience of this morning, still feel that everything is like a dream, is so unreal. Fortunately, however, the nerves of the clouds are still relatively thick, and they soon accepted this mysterious experience.

Where to get the seeds? This is a headache. There are all kinds of seeds on Taobao, and clouds are also on Taobao. But it is said that they are genetically modified. It seems that we need to go to the countryside far away to find some. Well, you should try to travel in the mountains to see if you can find something good.

Cloud shook his head, think too far, take your time. Yunduo got up to make tea. As soon as he touched the teapot, he suddenly realized that he was stupid. Now there is room. The water in it can be taken out to drink. Yunduo picked up the pot at home and flashed into the space.

He had drunk the water from the river. It was very sweet and he didn't have a bad stomach. The clouds didn't immediately fill the water from the river. Instead, they swam up along the river. After all, the place was not very big. Soon they came to the end of the river. There was a small round pool. There was water coming out from behind the gray barrier. They first flowed to the pool and then formed a small river. The clouds were very happy, So you don't have to worry about being bathed by yourself. After all, she still wants to drink for her family,

Cloud happily took the water, and when he got home, he began to boil water in the kitchen. Soon, a cup of fragrant tea rushed out. Cloud carefully lost a mouthful, sweet and fragrant. A strong aroma of tea reached his heart, and cloud narrowed his eyes like a cat.
